The Madonna of the Rose (Madonna della rosa) is a 1518-1520 painting now in the Museo del Prado in Madrid. Ironically the rose in this painting and the entire lower portion was added at a later date by an unknown artist. Its attribution as by Raphael is uncertain and the involvement of Giulio Romano cannot be excluded. A second autograph version of this painting without the added rose and lower strip painted on wood panel is owned by real estate magnate Luke Brugnara.
